Elon’s Next Market Move Could Send Silver Soaring
Elon’s Next Market Move Could Send Silver Soaring
Every industry Elon Musk touches explodes—from Tesla to SpaceX to AI.
And now, whispers are growing that his next move could be in silver.
Why? Because silver is the lifeblood of EVs, solar panels, and AI tech.
Without it, Tesla, SpaceX, and Starlink don’t grow.
Even back in 2022, Musk hinted at Tesla entering the mining industry. And with new policies clearing the way, the timing couldn’t be better.
What happens if Elon enters silver?
- Massive supply chain disruptions – Silver demand is already outpacing supply.
- Prices could surge overnight – Even rumors of Musk in silver could send markets flying.
- A historic opportunity – Investors who act before the headlines could be in for a massive windfall.
Smart money is already watching silver closely.
That’s why we put together the 2026 Silver Forecast Guide—your roadmap to silver’s biggest growth phase yet.

The Cold Snap Lit a Fire Under Natural Gas—3 Trades to Watch
Reported by Chris Markoch. Date Posted: 1/27/2026.

Key Takeaways
- Natural gas stocks are gaining momentum as winter storms, data center demand, and tight U.S. supply push prices higher.
- UNG and BOIL offer tactical ways for traders to capitalize on short-term natural gas volatility during extreme weather.
- Generac provides indirect exposure to cold-weather demand as power outages increase interest in backup generation.
Late January brought snow, ice, and single-digit to sub-zero temperatures across much of the United States. Ahead of the storms, several energy stocks—particularly those tied to natural gas—rallied.
The U.S. natural gas output sits near decade lows, while demand—even before the recent storms—continues to rise.

The #1 Way To Play Gold Right Now

One driver is data-center growth. While there is optimism that nuclear energy may play a larger role long term, natural gas remains the near-term solution. That has some traders looking to capitalize via two ETFs intended as tactical tools.
Winter storms also increase the risk of power outages, which can boost interest in a company that often benefits during hurricane season.
Each of these plays may have further upside. Traders looking to play the cold snap may want to consider these three options.
UNG Offers Direct Exposure to Short-Term Natural Gas Moves
The United States Natural Gas Fund (NYSEARCA: UNG) provides direct exposure to near-dated natural gas futures, tracking movements in the spot price. With U.S. production near decade lows and demand rising from power generation and data centers, UNG is a way for nimble traders to express a short-term bullish view during extreme winter weather.
The UNG ETF is up nearly 20% in 2026. Investors are betting on upside from the supply-demand imbalance, and cold weather can tighten supplies further.
However, the fund remains well below the 2022–2023 highs it reached after Russia invaded Ukraine. Following that spike, UNG dropped sharply and was a difficult trade for much of the subsequent three years — the fund is down more than 61% over the last five years.
BOIL Offers 2x Leveraged Exposure to Natural Gas Futures
The ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Natural Gas ETF (NYSEARCA: BOIL) offers 2x leveraged exposure to the daily returns of natural gas futures. That leverage can amplify gains during rapid price surges tied to cold weather, infrastructure constraints, or sudden demand spikes.
For aggressive traders, BOIL can magnify returns when natural gas rallies over short periods. For example, the BOIL ETF is up nearly 38% year-to-date—almost double UNG’s gain.
But the same leverage that boosts upside also magnifies losses. Over the last five years, the BOIL ETF is down about 99%, nearly double UNG’s decline.
Timing is critical. BOIL is best suited for experienced traders who can actively manage positions and capitalize on short-lived momentum rather than investors seeking a long-term natural gas play.
Generac: A Power Outage Play That Isn’t Just for Hurricane Season
Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE: GNRC) isn’t a natural gas producer, but winter storms can still make it a compelling cold-weather trade. Extreme weather increases the risk of power outages, driving demand for backup generators from both residential and commercial customers.
Many of Generac’s generators run on natural gas, aligning the company with rising interest in gas-fired backup power as grid reliability comes into question. While Generac is often associated with hurricane season, severe winter storms can create similar demand surges. If outages persist or grid stress worsens, Generac could attract renewed investor attention.
GNRC is up more than 22% in 2026, yet the stock remains about 16.7% below the consensus price target, which has been rising. While Generac trades at roughly 31x trailing earnings, its forward P/E is closer to 20x.
Why These Trades Require Careful Timing
What goes up can come down just as sharply. Natural gas futures are among the most volatile commodities, and factors like leverage, daily resets, and futures roll costs can quickly erode returns if prices move sideways or reverse.
Weather-driven rallies can fade rapidly if forecasts change or supply rebounds. Generac faces different risks, including limited demand if outages are short-lived or weather normalizes. Investors should view these trades as short-term opportunities rather than long-term core holdings.
